A nice amber with a small white head on the pour. Aroma is fruity with caramel malt notes. Taste is fruity, caramel malt, some toasted grains followed by some herbal hops bitterness. Palate is medium body with good carbonation, light crisp mouth feel. Finishes with a nice caramel malt flavor, fruity, some grains and mild citrus herbal hops for balance. It a good British style IPA for drinking.

Bottle. Nose is lightly piney and strongly doughy, getting great hop character and some spice there, pours a gradient amber-golden with lots of medium carbonation and a soapy beige head. Taste is medially bitter, moderately dry, and sharply adjusted -- really pick out the mineral additions to the water. Bitterness is crisp and snappy, though, and we’re clean throughout. Malt is lightly roasty on the level of Munich or a very dark Vienna, and getting some good minor caramel to complement the dough. Fullish body, perhaps a shade below, and really quite drinkable for fizzy-strong hop assault. Nice.

No date on bottle. Pours an amber honey color with a medium long lasting head. The thicker halo lacing never fully fades. Clear beer, appears completely filtered. The beer seems to be a an English IPA, the hops are not assertive, faintly fruity and lightly bitter. The rest is present and very British with fruity yeast tones, dusty malts, and a slightly sweet tea character. A sweetness and fruitiness ends the beer, not sugary but a definitely nice fruity yeast and sweet malt end. Its a nice change of pace for "IPA" and I enjoyed it. However, its probably not something I will return to.

12 oz Bottle from Total Wine and More The IPA poured a clear amber with foamy white head and lacing. This is nice looking ale. This is mild tasting IPA. Not much on the nose and just no bitterness of a well hopped ale. It is easy to drink. The IPA has a medium body with average carbonation. Some toffee or malts come out at the finish but still rather tame.
